Hi Guys,

This may sound dumb, but what are all the places inside your e60 and even outside that you would place your radar detector if you were to put it somewhere. I go to grad school out of the country and before I left I removed my Passport and put it somewhere, and then I came home 5 months later and could not find it anywhere. I'm back at school now but will be going back soon and wanted to see where other E60 owners might place such a thing.

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!!!

Sounds like you have picked up a sock monster in the car...you need to let it out at the nearest laundromat

There really aren't THAT many places to store things in an E60.

check in the housing of the charcoal air filter....dumb people tend to hide their radars there.
i'm assuming this post is a joke
seriously man, our e60's don't have that many places to store things.
